    Nish, I'm surprised you didn't re-write that to: Joe : I've used some C++/CLI to speed up my C# class... After all, in that C++/CLI article you wrote, the interop performance there blew away P/Invoke from C#...

        Nish, That joke captures it perfectly. The way things are becoming more and more dumbed down for the "average" developer, soon the only people writing native code will be the folks at microsoft! Rich

        I think you'll find at least a handful of developers at a handful of other companies (Sun, Apple, IBM, Oracle etc.) who still write native code :) regards, Paul Watson Ireland Feed Henry! K(arl) wrote: oh, and BTW, CHRISTIAN ISN'T A PARADOX, HE IS A TASMANIAN!

                              It's about as sexist as my pencil sharpener. How about Joe writing the code and John fawning over him? Some people will read offence into anything.
